The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!

We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your car. They will be able to take care of the common troubles that may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Hampshire we have seen increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by people not being aware of the way to use it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

As the product is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters. Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And absolutely do not start up the motor - not even to move it off the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may most likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SP6 Postcode - Woodgreen Misfueling

Just had a good night of sleep! It was 7:00 am on a rainy Sunday and I was off to help an older lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel modern BMW 7 Series in Woodgreen. She informed us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and stranded in a backwater lane along the way to see her grandchildren. I punched her location in the TomTom and got there within 60 minutes. I turned up at the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the work she said to me, "I am getting quite absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel seeing that I'd only just bought it a couple of days back when my old one, which I'd owned for over 25 years, inevitably stopped working". I got the drain completed and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely Hampshire woman!

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
